Need some torque specs

Im doing a top end gasket kit to fix an intake leak and was wondering if anyone knows the torque specs for intake, head, rocker arm things, valve covers, etc. It would be very appreciated.

I'll guess and say FE?

Intake is about 22 ft/lb

Rocker shafts are 42 ft/lb

Head bolts are 90 ft/lb (with oil)

Valve covers are like 10-12 ft/lb
